Re-recording only a specified
region (punch-in/out function)
Punch-in/out is a function that lets you re-record just a
specified region of a previously recorded track. The action
of switching a currently-playing track to record mode is
called "punch-in", and the action of switching back from
recording to playback is called "punch-out".
The MRS-1608 provides two ways to do this. You can use
the panel keys or a foot switch (ZOOM FS-01, sold
separately) to punch-in/out manually ("manual punch-in/
out"), or you can cause punch-in/out to occur automatically
at previously specified points ("auto punch-in/out").
